  • Oregon Interfaith Earth Summit 2023: TODAY, February 5, 1:30-5:30. Register at the door or at https://emoregon.org/event/earth-summit-2023/. Join other people of faith in your region who care about the environment and climate justice for this hybrid event: “Care for Our Common Home: Building Neighborhoods for Climate Resilience.” Salemites will meet at First United Methodist Church's Micah Building downtown. Snacks and beverages will be provided. However, parking is limited to the street, so consider carpooling. Doors open at 1 pm. If you only want to attend online, choose "unsure" for your local hub when registering.


  • The Salem Public Library’s annual Salem Reads month begins in February. The book for this year is Born a Crime by Trevor Noah, who grew up as a bi-racial child in South Africa during apartheid, when it was illegal to have such a heritage. There are a number of events and discussions scheduled by the library. You don’t have to read the book to take part in any of these events, but the Mission Peace Eco-Justice committee highly recommends it to you. You can pick up more information in the narthex, or read it here.


  • Missed the Legacy Giving Seminar last Sunday? You can watch it here.
